6) Middle Bonus

7) Casting Spells
The small strip of land between your cloning island and base is your Spells island, where you use your monks to summon powerful spells. One monk can be submitted to cast one spell. Monks will respawn every 2,000 game seconds, or you may purchase them on the Item Store if desired.

Frozen Ray - Grants you immunity to Fire Rays for up to 700 game seconds. (equivalent to 5 minutes)

*If you are caught blocking in any sectors of this map you will be marked off a warning by the game administrator. Please cast the spell once you get the barrel!

9) Kill Counter v 1.2
On the Bottom Right of the map lies the island called the Kill Counter. It records every player's kill statistics. Here you will see how many kills the player has and what prize you get from that amount of kills. Like a race, get as many kills as you can!

Counter Strike 1.6, CS:Condition Zer Settings for LAN Play and Clan Matches and HLTV

For normal LAN play you can directly start a listen server with following settings

For reducing lag,
  • fps_max 100
  • Video Resolution 1024x768
  • Video Depth 32 Bit
  • Video Mode OpenGL
  • Freechase cam
  • Spectate anyone

If you are using 16 bit video, it is called as 16 bitting where you can see the people through the smoke. It is better to practice with 32 bit video.

How players join through LAN,

When you are on a Local Area Network, If you start a Server people will be able to join your server from servers searched under the LAN tab. If they start any HLTV you will get the HLTV proxies in the same LAN tab.

HLTV:

HLTV is a very efficient tool for hosting a HLTV Proxy which allows others to watch a Clan Match into which they are not directly allowed to spectate as a normal spectator.

  1. Each HLTV Proxy allows some hundreds of spectators.
  2. HLTV Recorded Demos have Multipoint view so that you can record videos in multipoint views of a single instant.

Clan Matches:

Settings in Clan Matches include,

  • Friendly Fire 0ff
  • Round Time 2
  • C4 timer 35
  • Locked Chase cam
  • Spectate Team Mates only
  • tkpunish off
  • idle kick off
  • auto kick off
  • Gravity 800
  • water acceleration constant

Clan Match Rules include

  • Maximun rounds
  • Maximum time
  • Win limit etc

Better to use all the settings for practice matches same as the settings in clan matches.

A best Plugin for hosting Clan Matches is AMX Match Deluxe. Current Version is 8.11.

CS1.6 GUIs

  • PGS GUI
  • CPL GUI
  • SK GUI
  • ESWC GUI

These are some GUI which you can download and add to your cs1.6 installation to set the setting automatically.

All the settings are stored in config files. Some config files are shown below,

  • Config.cfg - main config for Cstrike present in Cstrike folder
  • Userconfig.cfg - Additional config for Cstrike present in Cstrike folder
  • amxx.cfg - Main config for AMX MOD X present in addons\amxmodx\configs\ folder

Plugin For Practice

There is a plugin for practicing headshots. This will allow only headshots and no other hits are valid. The player gets hit only for a headshot. Install this. Search "install addons" in site search for that page.

Downloads:

ClanMod - an Addon for Metamod

ClanMod is graetly simple and very easy to use mod for maintaining Listen Servers.

Installation of ClanMod:
ClanMod installation is very simple,
  1. Extract the ClanMod package
  2. Paste the Foldr in the addons folder
  3. Add a line to the plugins.ini files of the Metamod in the Metamod folder
  4. Line looks like this "win32 \clanmod\dlls\clanmod_mm.dll"
  5. Also you need to create an Admin.
  6. For this see the documentation.

ClanMod Documentation: http://docs.unitedadmins.com/clanmod/en/

You will get the required inforamtion there. The following information is for Clan Matches and Stuff.

I have tried to get the support for the Clan Matches. I was not able to host the clan matches perfecttly. In my view a good Clan Match Mod, should contain the each every step as indicated below.

  1. Should take the clan tags of CT and T
  2. Should start the match with a warmup mode and then with a knive round
  3. It must guide all the way through the game.
  4. When someone wins, it should show the Motd and stop the game.
  5. It should ask for the map cycle.
  6. It should show the complete statistics after the Clan Match.
  7. The statistics must include weapon stats also.

Many of these features are possed by AMX Clan Match Deluxe Plugin. It has a Menu which guides us everything.

you can download the AMX Clan Match Deluxe Plugin here http://forums.alliedmods.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=17394&d=1182746512

Hope you will make everything simpler than what you were doing before.

Binding a key in Half Life - Counter Strike - Must Haves of a CS 1.6 Listen Server

Binding a key in Half Life - Counter Strike means just assigning a command to the keyboard keys.

Console: Console is the interface where you can give a command. You can get the console by tapping the "`" key, the key left to "1" key.

You can bind the keys using the console commands. Or if you want the keys to be used permanently you can add the commands in the config.cfg in the cstrike folder.

This is the command to bind a key. bind
Ex: bind p "say hello"
Meaning assingn the command "say hello" to key "p".

Sample commands in the console:
  1. bind p "say hello" - when ever you tap the p key, it says hello in the chat.
  2. bind kp_del "sv_restart 1" - When ever you tap "del" in the Numpad it will restart the server.
  3. bind kp_5 "record map1" - Record a demo named map1.dem

So, this is how you bind a key.

The commands that a Counter Strike Listen Server must have to be used very frequently.

  1. amxmodmenu - Brings up AMX MOD X Menu (Requires AMX Addon)
  2. clanmodmenu - Brings up ClanMod Menu (Requires Clan Mod)
  3. amx_menu - Brings up client command Menu
  4. amx_gungame_vote - Brings up a vote for GunGame
  5. wc3_enable - Enables warcraft 3 Mod
  6. war3menu - Brings up Warcraft 3 Menu
  7. skillsinfo - Used to see own skills (In case of Warcraft Mod)
  8. playerskills - Shows other players skills (In case of Warcraft Mod)
  9. ultimate - uses ultimate skill (In case of Warcraft Mod)
  10. shopmenu - brings up power buy menu (In case of Warcraft Mod)
  11. shopmenu2 - brings up power buy menu2 (In case of Warcraft Mod)
  12. wc3_disable - Disables warcraft 3 Mod
  13. csdm_enable - Enables Counter Strike Death Match
  14. csdm_disable - Disables Counter Strike Death Match

For Plugins Download and Installation serach the blog. Site Search is the best way of navigation.

You can bind these to the following keys in the Numpad as shown,

  1. bind kp_home csdm_enable
  2. bind kp_leftarrow csdm_disable
  3. bind kp_uparrow amx_gungame_vote
  4. bind kp_pgup wc3_enable
  5. bind kp_rightarrow wc3_disable

The Listen Server becomes so easy to operate that you will lose no time opening the console.

Installing Plugins for AMX MOD X and Compiling AMX MOD X Source files

Installation and Compiling AMX MOD X Plugins

Plugins like Counter Strike Death Match, GunGame, Warcraft, Clan Match, Pychostats are to be installed in the amx folders to get the plugin running this is done in the following way...

Most Played Plugins:
  1. Counter Strike Death Match
  2. GunGame
  3. Warcraft3 Frozen Throne
  4. Warcraft3 Ultimate
Folders:
>Valve
>>czero
>>cstrike
>>>addons
>>>>amxmodx
>>>>>>configs
plugins.ini
modules.ini
>>>>>>plugins
*.amxx files (actual usage)
>>>>>>scripting
*.sma files (source files)
>>>>>>compiled
*.amxx files (output files)

These are the folders you get when you install AMX MOD X in your Counter Strike server. The tree should appear like this.

Now, if you want to install any plugin, you need to to get the package first. Any normal installation includes running an executable file to install the required package. But in the case of the counter strike addons it is not simple. Of course it is simple to install these packages. The package generally contains a source file and a compiled file. The source file is .sma file, and te compiled file is .amxx file.

The home of all the source files is SCRIPTING folder under the AMX MOD X folder of ADDONS of CSTRIKE. That is C:\Program Files\Valve\Cstrike\Addons\Amxmodx\Scripting\*.sma files

Compiling:

  1. In the SCRIPTING folder, there is an executable file called "compile.exe" and a folder called "Compiled".
  2. Put the *.sma files in the scripting folder.
  3. Run the compile.exe file
  4. Go to Compiled folder
  5. Get the *.amxx files

Installing:

  1. Put the *.amxx files in Plugins folder under amxmodx folder.
  2. The filename of the plugin should be added to "plugins.ini" in configs folder of amxmodx folder. For example "csdm_main.amxx" is to be added to the "plugins.ini" file to start deathmatch, where the plugin exists in the plugins folder.
  3. Add each line for each plugin in plugins.ini file in configs folder of amxmodx.
  4. The plugins.ini file is the connection between plugins and amxmodx.
  5. to remove the plugin, there is no need to remove the complete filename, just add ";" in front of the file name in "plugins.ini" folder.
  6. Looks like this ";csdm_main.amxx"

This is how you add plugins to AMX MOD X.

For example, try compiling the death match plugin source and run Counter Strike death match in your server. Try installing GunGame on your server by compiling the source which you get in a package. To get the Counter Strike-Death Match, and GunGame complete help see my blog pages. Use the search.

Type amxx plug-ins, it will show the pugins installed, check in the Mod you have installed AMX i.e CS1.6 or CSCZ.

AMX Mod X Advantages:

AMX MOD X helps in controlling the game options. You can type AMX commands in the console to control the game options. Also it will show up a menu by typing the command "amxmodmenu" in the console.

Some amx commands:
amxmodmenu - Shows a menu of AMX MOD X, Simple and Easy.
amx_statscfgmenu - shows a menu to configure statistics.
amx_map mapname - changes map
amx_vote q op1 op2 - displays a vote to the players
amx_pausecfg - to pause the game.

Using its features:

The AMX Mod X uses other plugins also to make the game play different than normal. You can slap, slay, kick, ban other players. Stats plugins can also be used to show the statistics of game play like ranks of the players. Some plugins can be added to change the game play. For example, Death Match plugin, Gun Game plugin, etc.

Installed AMX Mod X would create an “addons” folder in CSTRIKE or CZERO folder in which ever you have selected.

Folders:

>Valve
>>czero
>>cstrike
>>>addons
>>>>amxmodx
>>>>>>configs
plugins.ini
modules.ini
>>>>>>plugins
*.amxx files (actual usage)
>>>>>>scripting
*.sma files (source files)
>>>>>>compiled
*.amxx files (output files)
Now that you have installed AMX MOD X, you need to know how to install the addons.
AMX MOD X Plugins:
  1. Counter Strike Death Match (CSDM)
  2. GunGame
  3. Warcraft
  4. ATAC
  5. Psychostats
Installing Addons:
Addons are the additional plugins for AMX MOD X which will change the game play of the games you have installed on. Addons like GunGame and DeathMatch are very famous and most widely used for Gameplay.
For Example Installing the Counter Strike Death Match for AMX MOD X
  1. Download the package from http://www.bailopan.net/csdm/
  2. You will get the following in the package
    csdm
    pics
    csdm_mod.sma
    csdm_mod.amxx etc.
  3. Put the “csdm” folder in “…\amxmodx\” folder. This folder is needed for random spawn points.
  4. Put the csdm_mod.amxx in “plugins” folder, and add the text line “csdm_mod.amxx”in the end of plugins.ini. If this does not work in the game, compile the csdm_mod.sma, and put the output file csdm_mod.amxx in the plugins folder.
    Compiling: Put the csdm_mod.sma in scripting folder, run compile.exe. Output files will be placed in “compiled” folder.
  5. Restart the game, restart a multiplayer game. You should get the Death Match directly. You can disable the csdm by adding a “;” semicolon in front of the line csdm_mod.amxx in plugins.ini file.

Installing any addon includes placing the folders in their perticular location and placing the .amxx files and .sma files in their locations. Also compiling the source.

AMX Clan Match Deluxe Plugin Installation and Usage for Counter Strike 1.6

AMX Match Deluxe is a plugin for CS1.6 and CS:Condition Zero for hosting a clan match in the server. This plugin has a config loaded when the match starts which will setup all the settings for a aclan match.

I am trying the simplest possible explanation.


How to Install:
  1. AMX Match Deluxe plugin can be downloaded from forums of alliedmoderators and the download link is here : Download

  2. This package works on AMX MOD X 1.75 or more. So Download the latest version of AMX MOD X link is : Download (See AMX MOD X Installation page of this blog for complete help on AMX MOD X installation)

  3. Install AMX MOD X. This Mod is must.

  4. Now, in your package you see some files. Extract the package, and put the files and folders in corresponding folders of the game installation.

  5. Note these Points 6-7:

  6. If you have game installed in C:\Program Files\Valve... then you will find two folders by the name CSTRIKE and CZERO in the Valve folder.

  7. Now, when you install AMX MOD X, the installation will create a ADDONS folder in CSTRIKE or CZERO, into which ever you install it.

  8. The AMX Match Deluxe Package which you have downloaded also contains the ADDONS folder. Just put the folders accordingly in the installed ADDONS folder.
  9. Compiling the Source:
  1. Now, after finishing copying complete package, you need to compile the source. You might have already pasted a file named amx_match_deluxe.amxx in the plugins folder under Addons>Amxmod. This is enough some times. But many times you need to compile the source and replace the plugin with the plugin you got after compiling.

  2. How to Compile the Source:(See compiling amx sources page of this blog for complete help on Compiling AMX MOD X plugin sources)
  3. You have the source named amx_match_deluxe.sma, Now you might have already placed it in the scripting folder of amxmod folder.
  4. Now, run the compile.exe in the scripting folder. The output will be present in COMPILED folder of SCRIPTING folder.
  5. Place the output(.amxx file) in PLUGINS folder of amxmod.
  6. Finalizing:
  1. Now that you have finished all. Last step is letting the amx know that there is a plugin called amx_match_deluxe.amxx and running it.
  2. This is done by adding a small line "amx_match_deluxe.amxx" in the plugins.ini file under CONFIGS Folder of amxmod. To disable add ";" before the line like this ";amx_match_deluxe.amxx" in plugins.ini file.
  3. Start the Game.
Usage of AMX Match Deluxe:
  1. Type the command "amx_match CTname Tname mr10 ecup recboth" in the console. Now the server starts the match plugin and locks the game with some password. So type this only after everyone has joined the game. The game name is changed to "CTname Vs Tname Clan Match"
  2. Here mr10 in the comands means maximum rounds are 10 as ct and 10 as t. who ever wins the highest rounds win.
  3. Here CTname is name of ct clan, and Tname is t clan.
  4. There would a worm up round.
  5. There would be a knive round.
  6. The game can also be set to maximum time "mt
  7. Read the readme now, and you will understand everything.
This Clan Match plugin from AMXX is really cool to use. It shows the number of games won by each team in the bttom left corner. And it will also show the clan names at top left corner.

Mostly I will add a screenshot of the game, sooner or later.

Writing Your Own AMXX Plugins, All you need is C++ and AMXX Documentation

You can write your own amxx plugins just by opening the amxmodx studio and writing a program in it. You also need to know the commands which will interact with the library modules. Like,
You can get the documentation at http://www.amxmodx.org/doc/
some sample functions:
  1. cs_get_user_deaths
  2. cs_get_user_money
  3. cs_get_user_bpammo
  4. ...

There are some hundreds of functions like this. Using these functions you should get the information and you can make your own game play.
